Based on first-principles calculations, we predict that the superconducting MgB$_2$ with a AlB$_2$-type centrosymmetric lattice host the so-called phononic topological Weyl nodal lines (PTWNLs) on its bulk phonon spectrum. These PTWNLs can…
Weyl semimetals exhibitinging the topologically nontrivial touching points in electronic band dispersion of solids pave the wave way to novel electronic devices and functionalities. Here, we demonstrate the signature of topologically…
Weyl points emerge as topological monopoles of Berry flux in the three-dimensional (3D) momentum space and have been extensively studied in topological semimetals. As the underlying topological principles apply to any type of waves under…
Topological states of electrons and photons have attracted significant interest recently. Topological mechanical states also being actively explored, have been limited to macroscopic systems of kHz frequency. The discovery of topological…
The Weyl particle is the massless fermionic cousin of the photon. While no fundamental Weyl particles have been identified, they arise in condensed matter and meta-material systems, where their spinor nature imposes topological constraints…
To effectively regulate thermal transport for the near-junction thermal management of GaN electronics, it is imperative to gain an understanding of the phonon characteristics of GaN nanostructures, particularly the topological phonon…
The topological metal states in electronic systems have been extensively studied, but topological phonons were explored only in few examples so far. Here, we expose for the first time that the topological nodal gimbal phonons, type-I and…
Recent studies on different topological materials in condensed matter physics have provided the evidence of topological nature for bosonic particle like phonons by performing various theoretical calculations and experimental observations.…
Tuning thermal transport in semiconductor nanostructures is of great significance for thermal management in information and power electronics. With excellent transport properties, such as ballistic transport, immunity to point defects and…
Topological mechanics and phononics have recently emerged as an exciting field of study. Here we introduce and study generalizations of the three-dimensional pyrochlore lattice that have topologically protected edge states and Weyl lines in…
Topological interpretations of phonons facilitate a new platform for novel concepts in phonon physics. Though there are ubiquitous set of reports on topological electronic excitations, the same for phonons are extremely limited. Here, we…
Graphene as a two-dimensional (2D) topological Dirac semimetal has attracted much attention for its outstanding properties and potential applications. However, three-dimensional (3D) topological semimetals for carbon materials are still…
Nodal planes, two-dimensional symmetry-enforced band crossings, can carry a topological charge, similar to Weyl points. While the transport properties of Weyl points are well understood, those of nodal planes remain largely unexplored.…
In time-reversal symmetry-broken Weyl semimetals, Weyl points act as monopoles and antimonopoles of the Berry curvature, with a monopole-antimonopole pair producing a net zero Berry flux. The two-dimensional (2D) planes that separate a…
In analogy to various fermions of electrons in topological semimetals, topological mechanical states with two type of bosons, Dirac and Weyl bosons, were reported in some macroscopic systems of kHz frequency and those with a type of…
We investigate the topological consequences of coupling chiral fermions to local, dispersionless phonons. This interaction induces a splitting of the phonon spectrum into three bands: a flat band and two bands with linear dispersion, all of…
Carbon, as one of the most common element in the earth, constructs hundreds of allotropic phases to present rich physical nature. In this work, by combining the ab inito calculations and symmetry analyses method, we systematically study a…
Weyl points and line nodes are three-dimensional linear point- and line-degeneracies between two bands. In contrast to Dirac points, which are their two-dimensional analogues, Weyl points are stable in the momentum space and the associated…
A pair of Weyl points (WPs) with opposite Chern numbers ${\cal{C}}$ can exhibit an additional higher-order $Z_2$ topological charge, giving rise to the formation of a $Z_2$ Weyl dipole. Owing to the nontrivial topological charge, $Z_2$ Weyl…
Phonons have provided an ideal platform for a variety of intriguing physical states, such as non-Abelian braiding and the Haldane model. It is promising that phonons will realize the complicated nodal states accompanying unusual quantum…
